The correct answer is option 4, Chota Nagpur. Chota Nagpur, also known as the Ranchi plateau, is a plateau region located in eastern India. It covers parts of the states of Jharkhand, West Bengal, Bihar, and Odisha. Chota Nagpur is rich in mineral resources, including abundant reserves of iron and coal, which are essential for the production of iron and steel. This region is home to major iron and steel industries, including Tata Steel in Jamshedpur, Jindal Steel and Power Limited in Angul, and Rourkela Steel Plant in Rourkela. The presence of these industries in Chota Nagpur has led to its development as an important industrial hub in India.
